Whevever I try to export to any file type, I simply get EXPOIRT FAILED at the bottom. If I check off any of the other buttons, such as event details, I get Can't open event detail export file 'zmEventDetail.html'
The video is there, but it just won't export. Where should I start to look to resolve this problem.

The logs would be a good place to start.

I'm also getting this error, but only when I have the 'export video' checkbox on.
Below is my /var/log/messages I'm guessing it has something to do with the 'Error while writing video frame'

Wrong log, zms has nothing to do exporting so thats something else.
Check your apache error log.

It seems if I choose tar as my export type it works, but I just get an empty archive.
I'm wondering if the problem is there is no video files to export. All i see are jpeg but i was my impression that it just joined the jpegs into a mpeg then exported that mpeg.
Is that the correct behavior or do I have to take a few steps back and get video files being saved first?

You need to create the video first. If there's no video file, naturally it will not be included in the archive. Tick all the options and see what you get.

How do I get it to record a video file then as it is not apparant to me...
I went under options -> images and switched it from jpeg to mpeg and when I monitor the camera it is clearly using mpeg with compression as opposed to mjpeg...
What other settings do I have to modify to record video?
Much thanks,
Jason.

In the event window, click on video first, to generate an mpeg.

Thanks...
I'm an artard.
I was assuming it would generate that video file on demand when you try to export 'video'.
